Just watched the Pete Buttigieg interview on The View....

....My word. Dude just gets it. I'm sticking with Kamala because I genuinely think she is the candidate who can best go face-to-face with Donald Trump, but holy cow! Mayor Pete is one impressive individual. Learning a language just because you want to read a book in that language? Way to make a dude feel unaccomplished. Ya prick! #justkidding

The difference between the two will be glaring obvious with each response he gives.

But, as I've said a million times, we lost the last election by less than 80K votes with a crap candidate who ran a crap campaign. I think we're better off than perhaps we even realize. Can you imagine a Buttigieg/Beto, Harris/Beto, or Harris/Buttigieg ticket?
